The observational data of cosmology are presented in considerable detail and their interpretation in terms of various cosmological models is described. The data survey the nature and cosmic distribution of luminous matter (galaxies), radio sources, quasars, intergalactic matter, the radio and optical background radiation, x rays, γ rays and cosmic rays. The theoretical basis of cosmological models is described in its general aspects and in particular cases.
